Default fogs in stock location? need help

i don't have fogs in the bumper but want to add some. what are some decent ones for under $100. also is the factory wiring already there just not the lights? is it hard to wire them so they come on when the lights are turned on with the factory headlight switch?

Well do you have a switch in the cab? Just pop your head under the bumper and check for the plugs.

Id ebay or junkyard for the lights. I saw a nice set of projector fogs for like $50- 60 shipped

should just be plug and play, as long as your switch has the feature for the fog lights, and check ebay for different ones, if you want oem check lmc truck or summitracing

that option might have to be turned on in the CTM, also i just had to buy a new fog light housing for my truck and the factory dodge ones from the dealer are 75 each. so for around 150 you could have the correct setup.

if your switch doesn't have the fog pull out, you could always splice them into your parking lights or your low beams
